George Miller Is Finished Making ‘Mad Max’ Films

Briefly: Last year’s Mad Max: Fury Road, blew everyone’s f***ing minds.

The starkly different-looking film, with its unparalleled action and phenomenal performances is still being talked about, and showed up on more ‘Best of 2015’ lists than I ever thought would be possible (even ours… multiple times).

All of us Mad Max fans, new and old, hoped that Miller would start working on another film as soon as possible, rather than waiting for another 30 years to go by before seeing the franchise continued.

Well, based on the success of Fury Road, It’d be crazy to think that we’ll be waiting long for another Mad Max title, but unfortunately it won’t be coming from Miller. After months and months of talking about where he may take the next film’s, the celebrated director stated the following in an interview with PageSix:

I won’t make more ‘Mad Max’ movies… I’ve shot in Australia in a field of wild flowers and flat red earth when it rained heavily forever. We had to wait 18 months and every return to the US was 27 hours. Those ‘Mad Maxes’ take forever. I won’t do those anymore.”

Yep. We’re upset too.

Who would you like to see in the director’s chair for the next, inevitable Mad Max title? Or, without Miller in charge, would you rather see the series simply retired? Sound out below.
